Inside this informative guide, readers learn about the skills and training needed to become a marine biologist and describes what that career entails. Vibrant photographs show marine biologists at work in and around Earth’s oceans.

One of a set of six books that show how STEM education can lead to a decent job, with a skew to the outdoors – here we're shown environmental scientists stuck in a lab doing the drudge-work with their samples, but of course a lot of the time you might be on a ship with equipment, diving, training seals in captivity, or anything else. This felt a touch dry at times in discussing what the scientist might be doing, but it's not too bad an entry to a schools career library. I doubt there are many rival volumes covering similar matter, and with the daunting education and training needed to be a good marine biologist, a little dryness at this stage is not going to be a problem.
